Not because anyone won. Not because the past suddenly disappeared.
Time just does what arguments never could. It dulls the sharp edges. It gives space to breathe.
And what I'm hearing now, across friends, critics, and even people who never liked me, is something surprisingly similar.
We're done.
Not in a defeated way. In a life is too short to keep reliving the same fight kind of way.
None of us are going anywhere. Nobody's being pushed out. We all chose to be here for our own reasons. Liking each other isn't a requirement for sharing space.
I also know there will always be people who keep throwing shade. I've made my peace with that. For some, that's their outlet. That's how they feel heard. That's how they stay relevant.
I'm not interested in correcting it anymore.
I'm just not playing.
